Event 14 - $1,100 No Limit Hold'em ($150,000 GTD)
Level 1 (Blinds 25/50)
Total Flight 1A Entries: N/A
Tournament Director Ralph Brandt finished his rules announcement for the early Event #14 (Flight 1A) field moments ago, and the cards are now in the air. This $1,100 buy-in no limit hold'em event is the third "major" of the series, and boasts the second largest guarantee on the FSPC schedule, behind next week's $1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event ($500,000 GTD).
The tournament has three starting flights, with today's currently in action, and two more following on Friday and Saturday. The structure offers deep play throughout the event, with players sitting down to starting stacks of 20,000. The levels to begin the day are (40) minutes in length, but once play enters Level 7, they transition to (50) minutes (and stay that way for the rest of the event). Registration is open throughout the day, with the tournament also offering a Day 2 entry option, before the cards get in the air on Sunday. Each opening flight's play is scheduled to conclude after (12) levels are completed, or until 13% of the field remains (whichever comes first).
Players are still filing in and taking their seats, and we will allow for the room to fill up a little, before we take our first look at who is in this Flight 1A field. We would be remise if we did not mention the chip lead bonus, awarding a FSPC $1,500 Main Event seat to largest stack at the end of each flight.
